0 Guest Posted June 26, 2008 Report Share Posted June 26, 2008 Is "tougher than nails" literal or figurative? If its figurative then my answer would be The confederate flag? Was the pride of the south during the civil war. Doesn't seem to work with the last line though. If it's literal then The south's railroad system/a rail road car?
